Jack's Mannequin to tour in support of new album

Andrew McMahon and his band, Jack's Mannequin, are released their new album, People and Things, October 4th on Sire. McMahon is one of the true great songwriters of the last decade and, as his music always has been, People and Things is a personal record.

"I love this album" McMahon closes with, "for what it says and what it took to get there. It may not be life or death... but its life."



The first single from People and Things, "My Racing Thoughts," is out now. It's getting added to radio stations across three different formats - Triple A, Hot AC & Alternative - and is one of the most popular WMG tracks on Spotify. A video for the song will premiere around album release. In the meantime, check out clips below and make sure to subscribe to Andrew McMahon's ultimate mixtape on Spotify, which is updated weekly with some of his favorite songs of all time.


Jack's Mannequin is wrapping up their sold out co-headlining tour with Guster this week. The band will hit the road on their own headlining tour in support of People and Things in October. A full list of dates is below including a show with a full symphony orchestra. On October 6th, Jack's Mannequin will team up with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra to create symphonic arrangements for some of their best-known hits at The Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts.
